A.ps,, Notes.

yor the ENQUIRER,
ASPEN, Dec. 27.-A happy New Y YeaI
to The ENosIRRR NAV 1t be successful
one. A grand ball, under the auspices
of local assembly 440l, will be given on
February %. It will undoubtedly be a
financial success. A free reading room
has been opened in Aspen. Assembly
44Ol contributed .llberally towards It.
A donation of $25 was taken from the
funds to assist this good step on the part
ofthe citizens Of Aspen. The room is
being well attended.
Messrs. Pots & Fints. two highly re-
spected citizens of this place. left here
Monday morning for Sierre Mavodo.
Mexico. where they will become en-
gagged in smelling business. The MEM
bers of L. A.. 44Ol regret their departure
aud if wishes will add to their success.
they have them from host Of friends.
1t is stated anthoritativelv that BY the
summer of the incoming year, one OF the
many railroads that are heading for
Aspen will reach here. While we well
come the approach Of the iron horse
over the range, we at the same time fear
1t, for the reason that we know and real
ize that it is but the first introduction or
tidings of the approach Of monopoly and
cheap labor into Pitkin county. Should
a reduction of wages be attempted at the
time of this influx Of cheap laboring
men, strike will be inaugurated imme'
diately and fought to the bitter end.
Organized labor here expects it and are
preparing for it.
That nefarions habit Of making pre-
sentations or donations to bosses was at
tenn pied in one of our mines here re-
Gently. but was killed in its infancy.
This go-between or scab practice had its
inception in some Of ths older camps Of
the state. And many are the good men
that have been discharged for refusing
to subscribe to the donation Of gold
watch or something else. To the brave
and good men employed at the ]. G..
johnson mine, let credit begiven for nip
ping this loathsome habit In the bud.
It will have hard struggle TO become
customary in this camp.
Well, the obnoxious apex question
has had a trial and a verdict. The apex
friends are for the time being victorious.
The people of Aspen aud the county are
Justly indignant at the verdict. 1t was
contrary to law.and t-stimony and the
expectations or sentiments Of the people
of this mining district. This verdict
given TO those eastern capitalists Is
against the poor miner prospector and
settler and is q severe blow against the
mining industry of this county. Should
the supreme court of the United States.
in the next trial (as an appeal has been
tsken), give q similar verdict, then shall
those two or three mine and claim rob-
bers march tfiumphantly across the
range, and in tones, Napoleon like. COM
mand the poor miner and prospector
who have been toiling for years, past to
get just share of the treasures in the
mountains, to vamoose. Will they obey
I venture the assertion that they will
not. Consequently war-and a bloody
one it will be will be declared against
these illegitimate mine-owners or apex
fends. ID.

of the future market: "a sitter tone
prevailed on contracts, pretty we'll preserved
all day, and the market closed steady at an
advance of sac points"
The local stock market is strong, there be-
ing active demand for iavorite stocks, in.
Guiding bank and insurance. The figures
did not materially change y. sterday and no
sales were made, although the bid ling and
offerings were lively. There was no meeting
of the grain call board and probably will not
DO until the "long and short haul" question
is settled by the Interstate Commerce Com
missioners. At present Memphis can hardly
be considered grain distribu ing point, as
but little is doing in that line owing to in
creased railroad rates. The local grain, pro-
vision and other markets are unchaugei as
to quotations, but are firm and steady in
tone.
